Seven is better than one!
I know, I know, I said no more re-dos, one and done. Yeah. I know.
But my score was 1! It wasn't even a workout. I could do no worse. I felt that if I focused on stabilizing my shoulders I just might managed 10 reps and get myself to that pull up bar and give 14.2 a solid effort.
Since I knew I wasn't going to get very far, I took some creatine before leaving for the gym, with my ubiquinol and testAlpha supplements. Whether it helped or not, the world may never know.
Well I did much better. On Friday I took somewhere around 13 attempts for only 1 successful rep, whereas today, I took maybe 10 tries and got 7.
Still didn't make it to the pull ups. The first 5 reps took me half of the the 3:00 for round one!
Considering on Friday, 95# was my 1 rep max overhead squat, I'm pretty happy with my result.
This time, unless you got to round 2 you had to do the alternate WOD as well. I didn't mind. I needed to get some real work done.
-100 double unders
-5 rounds of:
-- 15 wall balls 20# med ball
-- 2 ring dips
-100 double unders.
Rx was 2 muscle ups, so that was a non-starter. You could also scale the double unders to 50, or 200 singles.
As I fumbled through the first set of double under, I got to 49 in like 6 or 7 tries, and was ready to quit at 50, but I ended up getting a string of 29, so I kept fumbling to 100.
The wall balls started to get rough on round 5. Shoulders were fried on the ring dips, thankfully there were only 2 reps per round.
Second round of double unders I stopped at 50. It just wasn't funny.
Feeling pretty good.
